I'm going in to work today, but this evening starts my vacation.. We're headed to Florida to see the last space shuttle launch with my brother and sister.

 

We're also going to spend a day at Universal Studios, take a look through Brevard Community College's 24 inch telescope, cruise in a glass bottomed boat at Silver Springs, and a few other things.

 

We'll be 12 miles from the shuttle launch in a recreational park for Kennedy Space Center employees. So we should see a pillar of light rising from the horizon, and then hear the sound about one minute later...

 

Oh, I'm not going to be worth a shit today...

 

If any of you see launch footage, look for us. We'll be the ones waving...

 

Barring weather or mechanical, the launch is scheduled for 11:30 eastern on Friday. The launch window extends to Sunday if necessary.
